Does light cause internal cancers? The problem and challenge of an ubiquitous exposure.

Journal Article 2002; 23(Suppl 2): 61-70 PubMed PMID: 12163851 Keywords: Environmental Exposure, Humans, Light:adverse effects, Melatonin:physiology, Neoplasms, Hormone-Dependent:etiology,.

: Visible light of sufficient intensity and duration inhibits melatonin biosynthesis, and experimental studies suggest that melatonin may protect against cancer. From a public health point of view it is important to verify or falsify the hypothesis that artificial light--or even sunlight itself--suppresses melatonin production sufficien.....
